Droplet Spectral Broadening in Marine Stratus
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Broadening of the cloud droplet (diameter < 50 ?m) spectrum with increased droplet size was found to depend on the vertical profiles of cloud water. Clouds with liquid water profiles resembling adiabatic conditions displayed ...
Maritime–Continental Drizzle Contrasts in Small Cumuli
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Continuous aircraft measurements of cloud condensation nuclei (CCN) were made during 16 summertime flights in eastern Florida. The air masses were divisible into maritime and continental regimes that respectively corresponded ...
Cloud Condensation Nuclei and Ship Tracks
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Enhancements of droplet concentrations in clouds affected by four ships were fairly accurately predicted from ship emission factors and plume and background cloud condensation nucleus (CCN) spectra. Ship exhausts thus ...
